How many pounds should premature infants drink formula before switching to regular formula?

Patient's question:

Hello, could you please tell me at what weight our premature baby can switch to regular formula? The Abbott premature baby formula we are drinking has lumps and foam after drinking, leaving a lot of bubbles in the bottle. What is the situation? What is the optimal water temperature for mixing Abbott premature baby formula?

Doctor's answer:

The mixing of Abbott premature infant formula is not uniform. It is normal to have foam after drinking: Abbott premature infant formula generally performs better with hot water than boiling water. Other milk formulas can be used for 3-6 months, but infants on other milk formulas may not always adapt to premature infant formula. This is the "I would like to ask if we can switch premature infant formula to regular formula after drinking a few pounds" suggestion. Hope it helps you, wish you health!
